#32026R0698Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/698 correcting countervailing and anti-dumping duties on optical fibre cables from India
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This regulation corrects an error in two previous EU measures that imposed definitive anti-dumping and countervailing duties on optical fibre cables from India. The Indian company Aberdare Technologies Private Limited, which had cooperated in both investigations, was mistakenly omitted from the list of cooperating non-sampled producers in Annex I of both regulations. The correction adds Aberdare to the list of companies entitled to the lower 'all others' duty rate instead of the higher residual rate. The corrected lower duties apply retroactively from 12 June 2025. Customs authorities must refund any excess duties collected from this company since that date.
